 August 31st, 2009 Well, today was the first day of school for Felicity, and not only does she have homework, but so do I. I have to fill out a survey for her teacher that includes Felicity’s likes, personality traits, and general information to help her teacher learn more about her. I also have a barrage of paperwork [...]
 August 31st, 2009 A few more items were recalled since my last post.

 August 29th, 2009 As a mother, I’m always looking for ways to make my kid’s food healthier. Here’s my version of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
Start off with 2 slices of 100% whole wheat bread. This will provide a healthy dose of fiber. The bread I use provides 5 grams of fiber per slice. Two slices equals [...]
 August 29th, 2009 Jennifer appears in the new issue of “InStyle” magazine. Here’s what she had to say about motherhood to her 19-month-old twins Max and Emme.
“There’s nothing as huge as giving birth to another human being and having to be responsible for another life. There’s you before kids, and there’s you after kids — and [...]
 August 28th, 2009 Missing Child Statistics
As a parent, the worst possible thought I could imagine is the loss of one of my children. I can’t even conceive of the kind of grief that must consume a parent who has lost one. Did you know that a child is reported missing every 40 seconds? For the parent of a child who has disappeared, [...]
 August 27th, 2009 I’m still recovering from our day at the beach. Felicity didn’t get to pet any dolphins, but she still had a good time. Chase couldn’t get enough of the water. Other than getting knocked over by a few strong waves and having our food raided by a flock of seagulls, we really enjoyed ourselves. None [...]
 August 26th, 2009 On Wednesday I’m off to take the kids to the beach. I haven’t been to the beach in years. So much traffic and nowhere to park are the main reasons. Felicity is so excited, but has some high expectations. I hope she doesn’t get disappointed.
“Are we going to a real beach?”
“Yes, we are.”
“What kind of beach [...]
 August 24th, 2009 Well, in the four days and three nights since we moved Nick to the toddler bed, and I haven’t slept past 4:00 am. I have been low on energy and cranky most of the day because I NEED SLEEP!!! I couldn’t sleep in today, either, because Chase had preschool, and I had a doctor’s appointment, then [...]
 August 24th, 2009 If you haven’t already finished buying all your school supplies, now is the time to do it, before the final sales are over. If you have a Staples near you, I recommend checking out their flyer. The one in my area still has some pretty good deals, including pocket folders for a penny each (limit [...]
